Tudor Heritage Chrono Blue
Launched in 1973 and produced for only a few years, the Tudor Montecarlo ref 7169 is coveted amongst vintage collectors. For 2013, Tudor reinterprets this icon in the new Heritage Chrono Blue. Similar to its inspiration, the Heritage Chrono Blue features distinctive touches of blue, grey and orange.

The 42 mm steel case is updated from the original 40 mm case. A bidirectional rotating bezel features a blue anodised aluminium insert. The bezel frames a dial with three-dimensional hour markers and two bevelled metallic edges that define an area filled with SuperLuminova. It also features two registers within blue trapezoidal shapes, one at 3 o'clock for the small seconds hand, and one at 9 o'clock for the 45-minute counter.

The knurled crown and pushers have a chrome finish. The crown is decorated with a blue lacquered shield. The new Heritage Chrono Blue comes with two bracelets, one in steel with a folding clasp, the other in reinforced fabric with a buckle.

Fastrider Black Shield

The new Fastrider Black Shield is an All-Black timepiece with a monobloc case crafted in high-tech black matte ceramic with a bead blasted finish. Inspired by its motorcycle partner Ducati, the timepiece exudes masculinity and speed. One version is highlighted with red details, another version is highlighted with bronze details.

The power reserve indicator is at 3 o'clock, the alarm function is activated by a pusher at 8 o'clock, and its ON/OFF indicator is displayed at 9 o'clock. The date is indicated by a hand on the counter at 6 o'clock.
